Julia
Well after her line about wishing Mal hundereds of fat children is when Mal says his line about a whole parcel of critters under foot. That's when she snaps at him and says "Can you leave me alone for five minutes" in a very harsh tone of voice. Then Mal "I wasn't looking for a fight" *Jayne cocks Vera* "always do seem to find one though".
I would say that jealousy is the easiest explination but considering we know Inara has a secret and that they are dropping hints about it, this scene could have meant more than what we assume at first glance.

Only Purplebelly believes this
Should it disturb me that this argument sounds believable?

As do I, but...did you just call me a loony?

lol. That's what I get for writing papers for three days straight. I start taking Purplebelly seriously
and I think people are calling me loony. I have to say, though, that's the first time I've hijacked a thread.
So...back to Jubal and Inara.

In "Heart of Gold" Simon didn't say he'd never delivered, he said he'd never delivered as the primary i.e. he'd only assisted before, probably when he was in medical school. This is typical with docs who specialize early, even now. A trauma surgeon like him wouldn't necessarily know more than the basics.
"Didn't she shoot you once?"
"Everyone's makin' a fuss..."

Another possibility is that uncomplicated deliveries are normally performed by midwives and not doctors, and most complicated deliveries are performed by OB/GYNs. ("Gynecologist" must be a common term or Jayne would have had to think of something else to say to gross out Kaylee in "Serenity.")
